Anyone looking at the GGPoker Super MILLION$ final table chip counts would have said that the tournament was Pavel Plesuv's to lose. Plesuv went into the final table action with a 169 big blind stack, with his nearest rival armed with 72 big blinds.
Nobody would have predicted the UAE's "WOOLOOLOO," a relative unknown in this $10,300 buy-in event, would come back from seventh in chips (26 big blinds) and emerge victoriously with $363,836 under their arm. But that is exactly what happened.
